NO! Come on now, how would you expect to fix a problem with valves that are more than likely bent without taking it apart. Unless you have some sort of spring/lifter/cam problem then repairing valves requires you to pull the head. I know its not what you wanted to hear but thats the truth. Why do you suspect the valves anyways? Your post is very vague. ---

because my rings r fine becuz i blew my head gasket and i have compression in NO.1 and NO.4 then i changed my headgasket and and put a new head on and now i have no compression in NO.4 and u can see when the lobes r upside down and No1 and 4 intake valvs should be closed u can see that NO.4 valves r still open so we hit it with a hammer and a it bounced back and closed like a 16th of a inch so i no there not bent cuz a bent valve would not close a little bit at all ---

There is valve adjust for these cars, isn’t there? There’s no hyd adj, right? I’d start w/ checking valve lash, befrore pulling the head BTW, post no. 2 for the noob!
